We are requesting classroom kits of Micro.bit and Sphero Ball to help expand their technology experience. These materials will afford my students the opportunity to expand beyond the keyboard and make their coding more applicable. Applied knowledge can greatly increase students' level of awareness and appreciation for how their world works, while broadening career outlook.
Technology also helps students be more responsible. Owning your own device or borrowing the school's devices gives students the opportunity to improve their decision making skills as well as taking ownership of a valuable (and often times expensive) device.
These devices will also help my students understand how to work better together as they will be paired with partners in order to complete the assignments. From learning how to code to learning how to better collaborate across teams and with their instructors--technology empowers students to be more creative and be more connected.
